Podhlavický mlýn (The North Mill) stands at an altitude of 408 metres in a picturesque corner of the Českodubsko region, in a landscape that combines tranquility, natural beauty, and deeply rooted history. This boutique hotel, created by converting the original mill, has been carefully renovated with respect for its historical legacy. Every stone, every brick, and every beam quietly tells stories of past generations and their lives connected to the mill. Authentic elements have been preserved and sensitively complemented with modern details that enrich the space with comfort and visual balance. Podhlavický mlýn (The North Mill) is a place where the forests rustle just as they did centuries ago and where tradition naturally blends with modern design.

Right after we got there, we were blown away by the attention to detail in how the whole place was renovated. But what really took the experience to another level was the staff. We felt more like we were staying with good friends than at a hotel.

A dream come true, literally. A place where we found everything we needed at the end of the year. Peace, quiet, tranquility, relaxation, amazing food, and mostly great staff.

Our stay at Podhlavický mlýn was truly a fairytale experience. A peaceful location in the middle of the forest, meticulously designed interiors, and excellent food.

I have never had such a positive experience during my stay. Luxury, beautiful and sensitive renovation is one thing, but the hotel manager is the best person for the job.

The wonderful wellness facilities and a trip on rented electric bikes were also unforgettable experiences. If you are looking for true exclusivity and prefer smaller, quiet resorts to overcrowded hotels, you will love this place.

My mom and I went to Podhlavický mlýn to relax... and it completely exceeded our expectations. Everything was amazing – from the furnishings and design of the room and the entire hotel, which is truly beautiful, to the cuisine, the surrounding countryside, and the service, which was truly incredible.
Olga H.
I was looking for peace and quiet. Podhlavický mlýn gave me both and multiplied the experience tenfold. One night here calmed me down more than a week on vacation. The family atmosphere created by the owners and staff was almost unbelievable. After staying here, your mind feels like a Zen garden, your body is rejuvenated, and your stomach feels like it's in a cozy room.

A quiet, romantic, rural place at the end of the world with a great atmosphere, exclusive services, and luxurious interiors and exteriors, all with a great story. As far as gastronomy is concerned, we must highlight the unforgettable approach of the staff, the amazing flavor combinations, and the excellent presentation of the dishes.
Beáta B.
We haven't experienced service of this caliber in a long time, especially service that was consistent throughout our entire stay. The staff was friendly and personal, providing just the right amount of attention. Everything was simply "right," and it was nice to feel their genuine enthusiasm. It made us want to be part of the team.

We had no idea we’d find such a wonderful place to stay right here at your mill. Thank you for being so accommodating—not just with our stay, but also with our Labrador. We were very pleasantly surprised by how you combine design, a pleasant atmosphere, excellent cuisine, and, of course, absolutely wonderful staff.
Dana & Pavel K.
There are many interesting places in the Czech Republic, but what really stands out is a quality team of people who not only work well together but also know how to smile and be friendly to guests. Your team is doing a great job, so kudos to you—you’re really good, and you’re a rare exception.
